As much as I love to see women feeling proud and empowered by their sexuality, I also want them to get the most out of this experience. Meaning share your photos with people who can relate or sympathize...not just random strangers on the internet! Make sure you are sharing with people who will encourage you and support you, not harass or judge you.

Read More2021 was every bit as fun as 2020, and yes that was completely sarcastic. I know it’s about halfway through January 2022 but I wanted to make a post reflecting on some of my favorite 2021 tweets! Twitter is a unique medium, I don’t connect with many clients or colleagues there, but I do get to interact with a lot of intelligent and funny people there.

Read MoreA self-care boudoir shoot will generate images that you can enjoy with a lover or by yourself or even to show off on social media. Furthermore, it's an excellent way to improve self-esteem and self-confidence.
There are a lot of things on your bucket list, but have you ever thought about adding a Boudoir Shoot to it?
A boudoir shoot is a photography session which captures the model's sensuality and sexuality. It usually includes nudity from the waist up, hence its name "boudoir" from French meaning bedroom. The idea behind boudoir shoots is that women can enjoy looking at themselves as sexual beings by viewing images that show them in their most attractive light.
Read MoreYou've probably seen a few of those revealing photos on social media or in magazines. But what you might not know is that boudoir shoots are much more than just sexy pictures. Rather, they're an opportunity for women to feel empowered and re-discover their inner beauty through the art of self-expression. The shoot can be used as a therapeutic way to explore your sexuality and creativity while having fun getting pampered with hair, makeup, and styling at the same time!
Read MoreWhat is boudoir? Why would a woman want this type of photo taken and what are the benefits of doing so? Boudoir photography is popular because it provides an opportunity for women to take control over their bodies, feel confident in themselves and empower themselves. There are many reasons why a woman might want to take part in this type of photo shoot-to make her boyfriend happy, as a gift for her husband or partner, to be proud of her body after pregnancy or weight loss, or just to have some photos taken with great lighting!
Read MoreIf kindness isn't something that comes naturally, remember these tips and try practicing it more often! Many people find themselves happier because they have done kind acts for others without expecting anything back--it only helps both parties involved. Kindness may seem like an idealistic way of improving mental and physical health but it really does work wonders on different levels.
Read MoreDistinguishing erotic from eroticism also helps us understand our own sexuality more deeply, thus enabling us to use our erotic potential without feeling ashamed about it. Eroticism does not imply immorality or sexiness; neither does it mean that everything exhibited is intended solely for physical arousal (although there are Erotic images which one may find arousing). Eroticism is a more formal term. Erotica, on the other hand, is generally used to describe that material featuring or dealing explicitly with sex or eroticism (as distinct from Erotic art).
Read MoreThe topics of love, relationships, and sex have always been shrouded in distorted messages, unhelpful lessons, and unrealistic goals of what a good and successful relationship "should" look like. However, a "date" was pretty straightforward. Back before everything went down, dating probably consisted of picking up your date from their home or apartment and taking he or she out for a fancy dinner or a movie. Generally, dating involved going out with someone and spending time with them doing things you both had interest in doing together in addition to spending time alone getting to know one another.
Read MoreA huge part of our job as professional photographers is making sure the client is comfortable with their bodies so they can relax and feel beautiful during the shoot. We show this by setting up psychologically safe environments where what we capture are real expressions as opposed to "posed" ones.
Read MoreThere are many things that make us unique and beautiful such as our personalities, talents, and the way we carry ourselves. We shouldn't forget about them just because there's someone out there prettier than us or more successful than us; after all, life isn't about competition-it's about being who we really are and not to worry too much about what people think of our looks.

Do you have trepidation about a boudoir shoot because you don't feel like you're good enough? One question that keeps coming up is whether someone can pull off the boudoir look if they don't have a swimsuit-model-perfect body. I see women of all shapes and sizes. I've shot people who are just starting to feel comfortable in their own skin again after having kids, and I've shot extremely fit girls who work out three times a week. All of them can pull off boudoir beautifully because it's not about looking like someone else!
Erotic photography is a form of art that explores the erotic and sensual. It can be used to explore fantasies or create new ones, as well as for artistic expression. It's most often associated with nude photography, but any subject matter that deals with sexuality could be considered erotic--even if it's clothed. The term "erotic" in this sense means "intensely pleasurable."
Read MoreFor boudoir pictures, what do you do with them? What is the purpose of boudoir pictures to you? Is it for your partner's eyes only or are boudoir photography something that all married couples should embrace? Should boudoir photo shoots also serve as bachelorette party ideas and sexy wedding anniversary gift ideas when you want to spice things up in the bedroom?
Read MoreBoudoir photos are often taken before a special event like a honeymoon or anniversary, but they can also be used as something simple and sweet for someone you love to keep close at heart. This makes them perfect not only for creating lasting memories but also increasing intimacy between partners through the act of self-expression on camera with your partner present - which is why so many couples choose to do this together.
Read MoreBoudoir photography is a recognized style of photographic art. Though erotic in nature, it has every valid claim to being art. The Musee d'Orsay in Paris exhibits nude photographs by Helmut Newton, Avedon and Irving Penn along with other celebrated photographers whose work might be classified as erotic or pornographic—but are nevertheless featured prominently alongside their non-erotic counterparts such as Ansel Adams and Alfred Stieglitz.

I've been getting a lot of emails lately from women who are confused about how boudoir photographs could possibly cost so much. With digital cameras, why isn't it just like snapping your own photos in the comfort of your home? Why is it necessary to hire a professional photographer when you can do this all yourself?
What does our mindset have to do with a boudoir shoot? A lot! You may be surprised to hear that many women come into their session with a negative mindset. They think that they are not attractive and they are uncomfortable in front of the camera. These thoughts can influence how your shoot goes, and it may even affect your post-shoot experience as well.
